Unable to connect

Post by ckindel » Fri Oct 01, 2004 3:15 am

I've read all the forum messages I could find on this, including the KB article/sticky that tried to explain all the possible problems, but this one isn't covered:

Running 2.0.5 on W2K3 Server.

SV was working fine about a month ago. I haven't used it recently and don't think I changed anything on my server...

When I try to connect using either the Admin Tool, the Client app, or the VSS providing in Dev Studio I get
"Unable to connect... Web Exception: The request failed with HTTP status 401: Unauthorized.".
However, I *can* successfully log into the web client and the web repository in IE! Both locally on the server machine and remotely.

I've verified the proxy settings in the Vault Client (no proxy).

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Vault (multiple times).

This happens whether I run the client/admin tool on the localhost or different machine.

Help! I can't access my Vault because of this!!![/quote]

Did anything change in your IIS configuration? Is anonymous access enabled?

See if this post is of any help:
